Nissan’s Qashqai SUV is the latest car to undergo scrutiny from the environment cops after South Korean authorities accused Nissan of manipulating the results of emissions testing.

Officials have reportedly proposed a fine and an enforced recall program for Nissan to rectify the problem, but Nissan denies any wrongdoing.

The proposed fine is around AU$385,000, and the recall would involve at least 814 Qashqais.

Diesel-powered Qashqais are in the spotlight, potentially delivering another black eye to the diesel engine in addition to the ongoing Volkswagen diesel emissions saga.

Volkswagen’s now-infamous ‘defeat device’ is at the centre of the emissions scandal, and Korean authorities have accused Nissan of using its own defeat device.
